I have a torsen in my spec and the black gear shaped ring on the outside is loose. This is at the end where the driveline connects. Has this ever happened to anyone else? and how do I fix it.

Fix by replacement. Very common problem.

So Mike(or anyone with knowledge),

Its hard to tell from the Mazdaspeed parts picture of this area, but when you say replacement is it all the pieces that seem to go over/around the pinion gear? What has come loose or worn that is the problem? I ask just for my own knowledge and if I might have something on an old diff that will help Mike N. Thanks!
